Anything but Love

By: Abigail Strom

Narrated by: Teri Schnaubelt

Socialite Jessica Bullock can't catch a break. After a lifetime of chasing perfection, hoping to please her parents, all her hard work is set to pay off. But on her wedding day, her fiancé leaves her high and dry. Humiliated, she finds her calm, cool facade beginning to crumble...until an unexpected wedding guest, her childhood best friend and crush, offers to help her pick up the pieces.

Never in his wildest dreams would Ben Taggart have imagined he'd be escorting Jessica on her honeymoon to Bermuda. Although they haven't seen each other in years, he can't leave her to fall apart. Agreeing to keep things platonic, they vow to make the most of their spontaneous vacation - until an unplanned kiss sparks a powerful passion.

They tell themselves that what happens in Bermuda will stay in Bermuda. But when old secrets are revealed and new feelings ignite, will Ben and Jessica be able to leave their romance behind?

Good easy dirty to listen to

Great narration. The story itself was a nice easy one to listen to. No overly drawn out drama. I liked both characters, and I liked them even better together!

really enjoyable

great narrator, loved the story line, I wasn't expecting the challenges the main characters faced. I liked the description of the solution/resolutions.

you should read this!

Anything but Love

What did you like best about Anything but Love? What did you like least?

I liked the friends who re kindled their relationship and the great love they found.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Jessica and Ben's strength.

I admired Jessica for moving on after what happened at the beginning of the book.

I was proud of her not cowering in front of her parents, but instead for once, doing what she wanted to do.

Going on her "honeymoon" with Ben (who isnt her groom) and finding herself was beautifully written.

I also admired Ben for being there for Jessica.

They were childhood friends, until one day Jessica just cut him out of her life.

He didn't give up on her, helped her get on her feet after the scene with her fiancée, he knew she would need a friend and he was there for her.

What does Teri Schnaubelt bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Teri Schnaubelt narrated all characters beautifully.

I could feel Jessica's insecurities, excitement , happiness etc.

She narrated Ben in a great way. He is one of those heroes who needs to come to life and Teri did that.

Could you see Anything but Love being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

Anything but Love is the perfect book to make into a movie.

It has all the elements: a (somewhat) jilted bride, friends re kindling their relationship, a vacation where true feelings are reveled and a very satisfying HEA.

Sweet romance

Very enjoyable! I really liked this book by an author I haven’t read before! I will defiantly read her again!

Narration Ruined It

Book is your typical light fluff and I would have enjoyed it a lot more if the narrator had just stuck with her regular speaking voice. That part was pleasant, but her acting out all the character's voices, especially as Ben, was so frickin awful I almost couldn't get through the book. During the sex scenes it was so cringy I had to fast forward through it. Even as Jessica's voice, she almost went valley girl at times which didn't fit with the character. The book would have stood on it's own without the unnecessary emoting.
